Henrietta Kosoko breathed her last on Monday, June 6, 2016.
The Delta state-born actress passed on in the early hours of Monday
at R-Jolad Hospital, Bariga, Lagos after a long battle with diabetes.

hospital, her younger brother, Krisvosa, who was her manager,
denied that.

taken to R-Jolad Hospital, Bariga, and had returned home before the
sickness relapsed.
According to him, “It all started two weeks ago. Apparently, she
was diabetic and was managing the ailment. She fell seriously ill two
weeks ago and we took her to the hospital and where she was admitted for
few days. She came back home doing very fine. She showed great sign of
recovery and everybody was happy that the storm was over.
“Few days after, the sickness relapsed and we took her back to
the hospital. She was admitted for the second time and died two days
after. She died around 9 am on Monday morning.“
